Always happy to discuss with those who act in good faith. But there is a big difference between ‘running away’ and refusing to get bogged down in pointless arguments with those who have only insults and hyperbole to offer. https://twitter.com/katymontgomerie/status/1246603080143159298
Happy to debate matters of substance. Here is a question to get us started.
How are woman to reliably tell if a man in their space is a harmless transwoman or a dangerous predator?

Meanwhile, via DM the ‘debate’ continues. We have about 100 of these messages so far.
Discussion and debate are vital. This isn’t it. This is something disturbing. These are the men who seek access to whatever space they like - and may not be challenged.

Katy. Just a brief perusal of recent comments to our posts reveals this. The kind of causal male threat of violence that many women have to face every single day.
So before we even begin our debate, do you join us in condemning this type of response unequivocally?

Possibly we jumped the gun with our first question to you. The starting point should probably be - do you accept that male violence is a real thing? That women fear?
We can then move on to discuss how women can be protected from this.

Here for example is a comment from a transwoman. Do you agree or disagree? If you disagree can you explain why?
These issues are not going away. In fact some of them are heading for the Supreme Court. All those who support raising men’s feelings above women’s rights will need to have a response which is something other than a grunt or a threat.
If you can - with clarity and courtesy - help us understand why men’s feelings should take priority over the safety and dignity of women and girls, we would be pleased to have that discussion. Because at the moment, we do not understand this argument.
O and btw we are now muting this character as the world is currently depressing enough without having to read this type of tedious nonsense. Do you agree Katy we have a right to do this? That avoiding the aggressive or mentally unwell is not ‘running away’ but necessary?
